A Large Acorn card with the Acorny Thank you Stamp

Hello crafty friends,
I thought I would take a break from Halloween projects and create a Fall card for today.

Ok, I was so eager to make a large acorn card to use with the  "Acorny Thank you"  photopolymer stamp set which coordinates with the acorn punch, when purchased as a bundle you SAVE 15%.  I LOVE this bundle and a must have in my opinion.  I hope you enjoy today's card my friends and got  inspired.

To start make sure you trace and cut two acorns.  Emboss the front acorn with the Woodgrain Textured Impression Folder.  Then score the top of stem to create the hinge for the card to flip and adhere with some score tape for durability.

I punched a 2" and a 1-3/4 circle to be able to add the cute acorn on top of the circles.  I then added some gold cording for a little more detail.  I also sponged the large card acorn with some Early Espresso to add some shading.

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend.  I was able to film a video and edit for today.  I used the Sweet Haunting Stamp Set which you can get in the Class by Mail, read the details HERE or below.

For today's card, I used the Freshly Made Sketch HERE.  I loved using this simple sketch because of the banners and the simplicity.  Check out my YouTube VIDEO  on todays card HERE.

Hello my crafty friends,

Today is my project for Decorate to Celebrate and challenge #72 is to create an Easter basket or birthday decorations.  Mine is not exactly a basket but a Easter bag which would be great for candy!

Thank you for stopping by today and I can't wait to see what projects you guys link up over at Decorate to Celebrate.

DLArt- April Linky

I used the the adorable image from the Eggstra Spectacular 

Stamp Set available to purchase at my On-Line store.

Thanks to Michelle Halleen at our annual Stampin' Up! meeting 

for teaching us how to create this cute mini bag. 

A. You'll need some pattern paper  8 X 12  B. along the 12" side, score at 1, 5, 7 and 11 C. along 8 score at 2 and 6 D. Make a slit on both sides of the 5 and 7 score lines till you meet the horizontal score line. E. Decide what side of the pattern paper you want as the border and then adhere with some sticky tape on each side.  A video coming up on Monday  on this bag.  Make sure you subscribe to my YouTube channel so you don't miss it.

I used some Wasi tape to wrap the pencil and the Blossom punch, I was inspired by the post from  Skip to my Lou and loved it.  I will definitely be making more of those pencils to perfect the application of the Wasi Tap on the pencil LOL!! I hope you 

enjoyed this project.

Hello friends,
Happy Birthday to my little brother who turns 25 today! My son made him some Loom bracelets and wanted me to wrap them for him but I decided to make him a box instead and a card:)

The card will showcase the "Making a Point Stamp Set" and the "Starburst Framelits Dies" which was perfect for this masculine card.

Challenges:

Freshly Made Sketches

The designer paper I used is retired but I thought it was 

appropriate to use with the Chevron Punch. The box is the Matchbox die (retired) in Pacific Point. 

My son loves his uncle and made him a few Loom bracelets. I thought a simple Matchbox would fit all those bracelets.  My son thinks Tony (my brother) is the BEST UNCLE!! My brother is such a kind and thoughtful person who will go out of his way to help anyone:)  He makes it a point to stay connected with his nephews and nieces and will even play Minecraft or attend his soccer games and he will drive 45 minutes to watch him play.  We LOVE him and wish him the BEST Birthday today!

I must say that I wasn't to excited about the Starburst Dies but after using them and layering with the circles, I must say that I'm super glad I bought them and you will love them too.
